I got the twirling finger the other day as I passed by a group. You know, the twirling finger pointing to the temple to indicate craziness. I don't know if it was in reference to myself, but I'm just going to try to explain some of the concepts I've been sharing a little better. I'm also going to try to explain my disability. Metaphysics is extremely complex. Some of its doctrines, when put in simple terms, sound like nonsense. I would say that my belief that we are here by design and that purpose is apparent in nature comes from reading about teleology. I think Plato came up with that one and no one thought he was crazy. My suggestion that sensory input may not originate in the flesh but in that hidden part of us that animates our otherwise lifeless bodies was drawn from something I read from a German philosopher who said that one's physical experience could be a mere projection of his mind. No one thought he was crazy for saying so. My support for religious concepts such as divine justice or the existence of an eternal afterlife is not meant to challenge scientific facts. I accept physics with respect to the physical world. I simply believe that it can't explain everything. Its very approach to problem solving depends on ignorance, as opposed to the more intuitive approach offered by faith. As I said before, I have been diagnosed with acute depression and designated as a person with a disability. Depression has nothing to do with one's intellect or reasoning skills. It is a mood disorder. I may have borne my depression since my childhood in a latent form, but it took the theft of my online work making me a target of hate for the entire world population to trigger its incapacitating symptoms. |
